Property Description
Expertly renovated and custom designed down to the smallest detail, 30 E. Scott St., is a 4 bed/5 bath historic townhouse in the Gold Coast with a private roof deck. Situated on one of the most prestigious residential streets in all of Chicago, first impressions do not disappoint thanks to mature trees, a classic brick-and-limestone exterior, and a cerulean blue front door. The interior footprint begins with an editorial-worthy foyer that flaunts terrazzo floors, an orange blossom wallcovering from Cole & Sons, and a walk-in coat room. First-class fixtures and finishes continue across the main level, beginning with a striking, open-concept living/dining room with high ceilings and hardwood floors. The street-facing formal living room receives amazing natural light and features meticulous millwork details and a black marble-fronted fireplace while the adjacent dining room finds definition from a statement staircase with original ironwork. Beyond, pocket doors reveal an all-white chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, gorgeous Lefroy Brooks fittings, a marble waterfall island with counter seating, and professional appliances including a Wolf range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Miele dishwasher. The main level also boasts a passthrough, marble-topped wet bar with slate-colored cabinetry and a wine fridge, a pretty powder room, and a reading den. Upstairs, the second level is devoted to this home's luxe primary suite plus a handsome secondary ensuite bedroom. The finely appointed primary features built-in bookcases, a sitting area, oversize windows with Juliet balconies that frame treetop views, generous walk-in closet area offering multiple closets with antiqued mirror doors, a built-in desk or accessories station, and a stunning ensuite bath with herringbone porcelain tile floors, a dual vanity, a soaking tub, a standalone shower and a separate water closet. The third level presents a lovely gallery hall with skylights that flood the stairwell with natural light, two additional bedrooms that share a full Jack and Jill bath, and access to a 250 square foot roof deck. (Note: The fourth bedroom currently features a built-in wet bar to serve as an upstairs family/media room, but can be easily converted back to a bedroom based on preference.) Additional callout details include a carefully curated collection of designer light fixtures throughout, a polished mudroom with side-by-side laundry and a wash basin, and a professional security and internet system. Steps from Goudy Square Park, Oak Street Beach, the Division Street Farmers' Market, and a wealth of world-class dining and shopping in the Gold Coast, 30 E. Scott St., is a turnkey home with incomparable style - and the best of Chicago right outside your front door. (Leased parking is available across the street.)
